    [Movies] The name that movie thread!

    Do you often have problems remembering what movie that 1 scene you remember was in? Is that 1 particular line always stuck on your brain but you just can't put your finger on the origin?

    Well fear no more!

    With the strength of many, you can now get help remembering that movie you keep forgetting about!

    Basically what I'm trying to start here is a thread where people describe the basic content of a movie (or a scene possibly) and then if they're lucky, someone else will jump in and save the day with the name of that movie.

    I'll go first. I remember parts of this movie I saw on TV when I was a kid. It was about these hobos and 1 boy who found this white suit. They all took turns using the suit and lived a great moment for 1 hour I think it was. There was the 1 hobo who was the worst of them, they set some basic ground rules about not eating a taco in the suit and not dancing with some woman in a club. Of course that 1 hobo broke all of those rules. There was also something about a line that they had to follow (a line the middle of the street) and a pay-weight they used to measure their weight.
    It's all half-fuzzy to be honest.

    Anyone remember that movie?


    Feel free to ask questions about any movie you're searching for.

    I remember watching a movie on TV... it'd have to have been 10-15 years ago. And basically they all lived in this colony because the world was a wasteland and this girl runs away (or maybe she was forced to run... can't remember) and anyway a bunch of people come after her and at the end her and the group she meets along the way come to this place that has grass or plants or something along those lines.

    I get the feeling the movie had something to do with a district 8 or sector 8 or something like that but.... *shrug*

    Pretty vague but... anyone?

    Hey. Check this out: http://www.imdb.com/list/5KrVi3oLRHg/ , but I'm pretty sure it's either this: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0090296/ , or this: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0190520/

    Nope. Had a look through a few hundred titles as well but nothing
    Guess I just can't remember enough to figure it out.

    I remember another scene. There was this guy who was torturing information out of this other guy. He had him hung up on his hands and was telling him that he was going to use a blowtorch on his back if he didn't tell him the information he needed. Then he told him that the blowtorch is so hot that the body goes into a shock making the blowtorch feel ice cold.
    He then turned on the blowtorch and burned some animal skin or something I can't remember and then put a popsicle on his back and moved it around and meanwhile the guy was screaming in agony, thinking he was actually burning his skin off.

    There might have also been a girl in this movie who was the torturers daughter, except she didn't know it, they lived in some apartment house with a shared stairwell. It was later all destroyed by a Russian guy I think...

    Anyone know what movie this is?

    I thought it was some other movie than the Punisher, maybe I mixed them together or maybe I didn't.... either way thanks :P

    I remember some movie about grown women having a slumber party and telling each other detailed stories about how they have intercourse in weird places or how they cheated on their husbands... it wasn't a porno, but it had some light "lorno" scenes. Can't remember the name of that movie...

    Think you can do TV shows too? I remember one about this kid who kept getting flashbacks about his dad running from the series bad guy, his dad was carrying some watermelon hi-tech thingy and then fell into some crack.

    I remember the hero's name was Nick and I think his best friend was named Angelica. He could transform his limbs into weapons, mainly his hands, I don't think he changed his legs often.

    The bad guy looked like some sort of a burn victim/cyborg/aliens (the movie) hybrid.

    I once saw a Power Rangers movie, live action, where the villain was some evil dude using some green slime to control all children’s parents. Please help xD I was incredibly scared by these parent-controlling slime things as a child.

    Don't have any solutions but I do have a movie I simply can't find and doubt anyone else will. It was the first DVD I ever saw, it came from the public library, so I'd say it was around '99 or 2000 that I saw it. I really want to say the title began with a Z and was about 5 letters long, really strange name, but I (obviously) don't remember. It wasn't even particularly amazing but I'm just aggravated I can't find the damn thing in any database.

    Basically the whole movie is a game, in starts off with a group of about 20 random people or so are sitting around in a circle with these weird ass pod-controller things sitting in their laps and hooked up to their heads. Then they basically...find each other and kill each other off in this world...was just very strange. Don't remember a lot but one scene I recall quite clearly is that the main character goes to this restaurant and there is a pretty freaking weird looking pistol that he he assembles hidden in his rather disgusting looking dinner, which he then uses to shoot someone in the restaurant. It's definitely nothing that was ever very popular but it's about the only movie I've ever seen in which I can't seem to find the name to.

    My wife has been wanting to find this movie that she claims is scary, but apparently it has a woman (or girl) and she gets a bowl of fruit out of the fridge and the fruit becomes evil and sews her mouth shut.

    That's all I have to describe it.

    That is it...thank you. Surprised someone found it so quickly, then again it did have some pretty well-known actors in it that I just didn't remember.
